It's not the government, it's the advertising industry.
Why else would it have been handed over the Dept of Commerce ?

The ad industry has convinced every business person they must advertise.
Ad agencies have filled up almost every foot of publicly visible space,
and you can't look anywhere without seeing ads in one form or another.

So now they are going to track your computer ramblings
and present you with "opportunities" that were selected "just for you".
Cookies and FaceBook are their best friends, but cell phones and iPads work for them too.
The "find my iPad" feature on Apple's iPad has already been hacked for ulterior motives.

Corporations never die, so why should I think that databases ever get erased.
After all, my G-child's day care facility may some day be a key for selling high end golf clubs.

See, I'm only a little bit paranoid about databases
